NEW – Boulevard Easy Sport Recreation Ale

by

EASY SPORT

Easy Sport

Following over a year of development, testing and tasting, we’re excited to introduce Easy Sport, a beer brewed for runners, cyclists, hikers, pickleball players, karate masters, yogis, disc golfers, ball golfers, yard mowers, jazzercisers and people who are just plain thirsty.

Easy Sport is a refreshing, super drinkable, bright ale with a hint of tangerine. Beginning with a simple, easy-drinking blonde ale recipe, we add electrolytes to an extended mash and again during the boil to create a super dry, perfectly balanced beer. At the end of fermentation, we add more electrolytes and a touch of tangerine peel resulting in a slightly tart, subtly salty, all-natural, low calorie, carb-conscious beer.

Malt
Pale malt

Hops
Columbus – 15 minutes into boil to provide balancing bitterness
Mandarina Bavaria – during whirlpooling to impart a kiss of tangerine/citrus flavor and aroma

Yeast
Scottish ale

Supplements
Potassium – maintains hydration and assists in recovery
Magnesium – optimizes brain, muscle and nerve function and enables faster recovery
Sea Salt – provides minerals to improve hydration, balances blood sugar & pressure

Flavor Profile
Aroma – Citrus, honey-like malt
Malt – Airy, subtle sweetness
Hops – Supporting balance
Balance – Refreshing tartness
Body – Light, crisp

Characteristics
Alcohol by Volume – 4.1%
IBUs – 9
Color – 10 EBC
Carbs – 4.5g
Calories – 99

Pairings
Goo packs, jersey pocket bananas, granola bars, gummy bears, burpees, a wicked runner’s high
